At Mbeya Consultant Hospital, we have a pediatric unit that provides age specific care to children from birth to age 18 in the region. We strive to make this difficult time as easy as possible.  We work with parents to make hospitalization less traumatic by encouraging family involvement and providing a base for family-centered care. 

We provide inpatient and outpatient services that focus on the acute management of illness, and the diagnosis and treatment of diseases through a comprehensive assessment.  Medical surgical care is given to patients with a wide variety of diagnoses.
